No.19 men’s basketball improves to 3-0 in Conference play, holding down San Jose State in 81-78 win

San Diego State men’s basketball (14-2, 3-0 Mountain West) entered another conference matchup with an earned close win over the San Jose State Spartans (7-9, 0-3 Mountain West) at Provident Credit Union Event Center on Tuesday night.

“As crazy as it may sound, this is exactly how I thought the game would go,” said head coach Brian Dutcher. “They’re dynamic offensively. … Tim Miles has got a good team this year. They just have not won the close game. And that’s the difference between having the year we’re having and the year they’re having.”

Jaedon LaDee had 31 points and 10 rebounds, leading the Mountain West Conference as its leading scorer at 21.
